Possibly in an effort to tantalize and stay in the news, Warriors co-owner Joe Lacob left a Monday morning interview on KNBR radio with a gem:

"We'll have another announcement (Tuesday) that is very, very significant," he told Gary Radnich, "something that is very important to our organization."

Warriors management said it doesn't expect any roster transactions today, so an Andris Biedrins trade doesn't seem imminent. Head coach Mark Jackson said he expects to hire the rest of his staff this week, so that might be what Lacob has deemed "very, very significant."

Because the team has not scheduled a news conference, the hiring of the president who will replace Robert Rowell doesn't seem to be a possibility. It could be something that Lacob views as super significant, like acquiring an NBA Development League team in North Dakota - which multiple sources expect in a matter of days.

On the roster front, director of basketball operations Kirk Lacob said he did grant an interview with the French website BasketUSA.com, which reported this weekend that the Warriors turned down the Houston Rockets' draft-night trade offer of Hasheem Thabeet and Jordan Hill for Biedrins.

However, Kirk Lacob said much of the interview was lost in translation. He said a Biedrins-for-Thabeet-and-Hill deal was not discussed, but the three players were part of potential multiplayer deals that probably would have included other Warriors assets.

As for the coaching staff, Jackson has hired Michael Malone as his lead assistant, is expected to announce the addition of former Chicago Bulls assistant Pete Myers and has been granted permission to interview someone on the Orlando staff, possibly Brendan Malone, Michael Malone's father, who was a Knicks assistant when Jackson was drafted, or former New York teammate Patrick Ewing.

Myers is best known as the shooting guard who replaced Michael Jordan when he first retired from the Chicago Bulls in 1993. Myers was on the Chicago staff from 2001 through '10, which included two short stints as interim head coach.
